Sadly, the LGBT community still faces many challenges in society. The myths that continue to exist today around this issue hinder progress, but as Daniel explains, we might have one very powerful tool to get rid of these false believes.

Daniel is a student devoted to foster understanding about what it means to be part of the LGBT community as a teen in today's world.

TED-Ed Clubs aims to introduce a school-friendly framework that supports students in meeting regularly to discuss, pursue and present their big ideas in the form of short TED-like presentations. We hope to celebrate exceptional student ideas by potentially featuring them at the annual TEDYouth conference and the TEDxYouth events.

This presentation was completed by participating in a TED-Ed Club and produced independently of the TED Conferences. Only Facilitators (teachers, counselors, administrators, or adults over the age of 18) who have received approval to lead a TED-Ed Club are able to upload TED-Ed Club presentations on behalf of their students.
